2012: Satnam Responds in Code Dan Koelsch, October 22, 2009 As we reported earlier, Soren Ulfert is on the run from the powerful IHC, but must still have his laptop, because he got a response from his friend Dr. Satnam Tsurutani, who he reached out to last week. Satnam works at the IHC, and Soren believes he has inside information on the Naaczaal project. If he does, he doesn’t seem to be willing to help. Check out the video Satnam sent for yourself: At first glance, it just looks like Satnam is scared and warning Soren to back off. It’s obvious Satnam isn’t really upset with Soren, but by pushing him away, he may be protecting both of them. But is there more to this video? Satnam looks down periodically and talks with a weird rhythm, which may mean he’s reading a statement (further suggesting he doesn’t mean what he says), or it could be more than that. But don’t let that distract from the REAL signs of the code. Every once in a while a sound matches perfectly with a word Satnam says. It sounds like someone tapping a mic in case you miss it. If you pay attention to the words that correspond to the sounds, you’ll notice they make a sentence of sorts.EYES ARE WATCHING US DANGERLooks like Satnam does want to help, but can’t. Maybe he’ll find another way. We’ll have to wait and see. 2012 is in theaters November 13th and you can discuss these updates to the viral in the comments below, or on our forum.
